Funny to watch morons calling smarter posters morons. Foreman had an excellent jab and BRUTAL power. He's a ****ing Olympic gold medalist from back in the days when that really meant something. Vitali is good, George is on a whole different level.
VK fought only one real competition and he lost. fought a part-time boxer in byrd and injured himself and lost. who's hyped to a different level now?
The idiots picking Foreman on resume need to understand this is a styles thing. Foreman matchesup horrible against someone thats faster/bigger/more skillfull and has a iron chin. Vitali would also not be pushed around, hed keep Foreman on the end of the left hand and end it in the later rounds when Foreman was exhausted. Foreman is obviously the much greater fighter, but h2h its a easy pick for Vitali if you have just the slightest bit of objectivity. Im glad the haters will just say Vitali will get injured though, thats all you really have to hold on too cause Vitali uninjured is a bad man.
atsch Funny thing is GEORGES resume isnt that good anyway . Unless KOing a shot one eyed midget and KOing the ALLWAYS gets KOed by hard punchers NORTOn great . Fact is GEORGE is the only good fighter ALI managed to stop in thye mid 70s . GEORGE is also the only good fighter YOUNG was able to drop . Add the fact GEORGE was easily outboxed and wouldnt be BIG GEORGE in this match ( In fact he would be little GEORGE ) it simply doesnt look good for him . George doesnt match up good style wise or on a competition level ( or resume ) whatever you want to call it .
I give this one to Vitali by a whisker. Don't see either guy getting ko'd. Foreman takes the early rounds with pressure, has Vitali in trouble a couple of times but ironchin survives. As the rounds pass Foreman begins to tire, Vitali takes over winning a close UD. There is always another possibility, a cut, Foreman tko6.
I say Vitali takes him by late TKO or decision. Viltali just has a perfect style for George. Lots of movement would keep George off balance unable to land those giant shots, the ones that would land would not land flush enough on Vitali. Foreman not landing flush enough would still do most people in, but Vitali also has a great chin and stamina.
Yeah Foreman was great. Great power and balance. But he was way too slow. Vitali would be putting leather on him every couple of seconds and beyond George's great jab not much would be landing on Vit because Foreman loads up on power and telegraphs too much. My 2c
